Soundgarden will release their first new album in 16 years, “King Animal,” on November 13.

On Thursday, the band announced a series of intimate shows to launch the project.

Soundgarden will play Irving Plaza in New York City on November 13, the Phoenix Concert Theater in Toronto on November 16, and at The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles on November 27.

Fans who pre-order "King Animal" before 11:59 p.m. PST on November 7 will be sent a password which allows access to the on-sale on November 8 at 12 p.m. local time for the three shows. Tickets will be sold on a first-come-first-served basis, and there is no guarantee a password will get you tickets.

The concerts go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. local time on Friday, November 9.
